Does anyone currently use a motorised jockey wheel.  We are looking at a Trojan motorised jockey wheel for a Quintrex 470 Coastrunner and would like to know how these work from a current user - same or another brand.  Weve been to a number of resellers of this brand and nobody has a unit they can demonstrate and none can or will give any contact details of customers who have bought one of these units for moving a boat around.
